OK, thanks guys. I don't have any greater resolution photos, or a pic of the pad stamp. These pics were taken with my BB while squeezing myself underneath the car, and I wasn't able to get a pic of the pad without removing the alternator. The pad is properly dated and it looked to be OK to my eye, but...

Yes Kurt, this is a burgundy RS Z, although the current owner isn't a Rob. I take it the VIN is in the CRG database.

OK, it's enough that there's doubt about the stamps. I've got other complaints about the car too, so I'll pass on it. A knowledgeable friend of mine here had question about these stamps too. I shouldn't have second-guessed him.

it is my understanding that the same stamps were used, so if there are bigger "0's" on one stamp, they should be on the other stamp as well.

That's not always true - I've seen stampings on known-original cars that indicate that those two stamping operations were occasionally separated. Work elements in line operations were always subject to rearrangement as content and manpower adjustments were made.
